Chapter 277: Halfway Through the Race

The LPL Summer Tournament is in full swing.

After Mixia defeated RNG, the team's schedule did not tend to be easy, but faced "strong opponents" one after another.

They have faced the challenges of OMG, VG, IM and GT, all of which are at the top of the leaderboard.

Of course, the so-called EDG's devilish schedule is only for the esports media and coach Abu.

The former marketing account will only pull data to look at the standings, and feel that the top five teams in the first place must be evenly matched, and even if the media that recognizes the situation of the LPL super and many weak, in order to cooperate with the promotion of the popularity of the LPL event, they will deliberately write the game full of suspense.

For example, the news before playing OMG wrote, [The dark forces are back, LPL single kill king I face the single kill queen Mika, who is the first person in the LPL middle lane! ] 】

Playing VG is [EasyHoon Half-Flesh Vampire vs. Mika Assassin Flow Vampire, who is better!] 】

To IM, there is a decisive battle on Lingshi Road, Athena, who was also a substitute for EDG, can she defeat Mika to complete the next gram! 】

……

In short, the media writes from an eye-catching angle.

Coach Abu, on the other hand, is confined to his conservative personality and habitually prepares his opponents before the game.

As for Mei Xia, she replied that Luo Xin was choking when she was interviewed, but in fact, she was still more concerned about RNG, but in the face of these teams after that, she really didn't study it seriously.

She only sees herself as the king who accepts the challenge!

The process and the result of the competition proved her self-confidence!

Mixia showed off the vampire who killed the big killer in the match with RNG, and with the Tsar and vampire who have proven to be unstoppable, her mid-laner mage hero bowl is basically completed.

Even if it is now recognized that Mika's mage hero is not as good as the assassin, the coaches of all the teams have to admit that the three bans can no longer deal with Mika's mage three-plate axe!

In the match with OMG, she is a vampire and a demon queen in one hand, defeating OMG led by I with a forehand and backhand, and beating the autistic SMLZ after the game.

And on June 25th, in the match with VG, she took out a new hero, Rock Sparrow Talia, in addition to the mage three-plate axe, and defeated EasyHoon's signature vampire and the tsar in a hard-fought way.

And then at the beginning of July, in the game with IM, Misxia pulled the ancient beauty AmazingJ signature Galen to the point that everyone fainted, and Athena showed with a super god record why she was the first one at the beginning of the year, and the other party was assigned to the second team of EDG by Abufa.

After that, it was even easier to win against the bottom team GT, ending the game 2-0 in less than an hour.

These teams, which were thought to have the potential to bring Mika off the horse, were all defeated without exception.

At the halfway point of the LPL schedule, EDG leads Group A with a 9-0 record.

This means that EDG continues to win all the games from the Spring Tournament to the MSI Tournament and then to the Summer Tournament, and continues to break the winning streak set by itself!

LPL 25 wins in a row!

If you count the playoffs and MSI games, it is an unprecedented 39 consecutive wins!

Not only that, EDG also set a record of 20 unbeaten games in the small game!

Personal aspects.

Summerhouse herself is also far ahead of the other players in the competition area in various statistics, and proves to everyone with perfect results-

Even if she is the worst mage version, the EDG she leads is still the strongest team in the LPL, and regardless of the strength, tactics or cooperation of the players, they are ahead of all teams in the LPL!

After EDG's invincible strength was continuously verified, and the problem of the Summergate hero pool was broken through, coach Abu's mind finally stopped seeing the domestic team as an opponent and began to look forward to other regions.

And it was the study of the possible opponents of the World Championship that made the whole team more nervous than when they were preparing to face RNG before......

Unlike the continued dominance of the LPL in the LPL division, the LCK situation in the summer next door has changed dramatically.

The LCK Spring Champion, SKT, who represented MSI in Korea, seemed to have been really beaten down by Mika, and their regular season record after returning home was a shocking record, ranking last with a 4-6 record!

MVP, ROX, and KT are the top three.

As a result, as the summer season passed and the Worlds were in sight, the online discussion about the gold content of the Mid-Season Cup and the Worlds gradually emerged.

On one side is the audience that supports EDG.

"Anyone who can read the game understands how dominant EDG is right now! They have changed both their tactical style and personal strength, and it is no longer last year's EDG! ”

"39 consecutive wins, MSI titles, this is a testament to the strength of EDG, they have come out of the shadow of last year's Waterloo at the Worlds!"

"Mika-chan is the most beautiful player, EDG is the first team, and LPL is the first division! Mika said. ”

"Mika didn't say she's the prettiest."

"I asked my wife Mika-chan LPL before going to bed last night who is the best-looking, and she admits that she has to pinch it."

"Don't go crazy here."

……

There are also many who hold the opposite view.

"MSI really doesn't have a gold content."

"Rational discussion, can EDG's two MSI champions be combined into a World Championship trophy?"

"No, I don't really think that MSI has much gold content, EDG won the MSI championship last year, and the experience of going home in the quarterfinals of the World Championship is still vivid!"

"EDG won SKT, which finished third from the bottom in the LCK Summer Tournament, and thought they were the number one team in the world?"

"I don't understand what is worth believing in EDG, a civil war phantom god, just because they change to a cherry blossom girl, the cowardice in their bones will disappear? Impossible! ”

"EDG fans are so incomprehensible that they have started to blow the world's No. 1 team before the summer tournament is over......"

……

The tension and increasing pressure from EDG to the coaches and players originated from various-for-tat discussions on Tieba and even Weibo.

Obviously, MSI is an honor for their hard work.

The total victory of the LPL is also a proof of strength.

But it seems that in the eyes of many people, these real results are insignificant, and only the World Championship is the only chance to prove that they are not the Phantom Gods of the Civil War, and once they lose the game on the world stage......

The situation of receiving all kinds of verbal criticism after the defeat in the quarterfinals last year lingers in their minds, and it is as clear as yesterday.

The factory director began to insist on playing a few more games every day, Abu talked about LCK from time to time during meetings, and Meiko and Deft occasionally made small mistakes.

Fortunately, these changes are not too small to affect the outcome of the game for the time being.

The bad is the bad, Mixia senses the subtle change in her teammates' mentality, and she tries to reverse it, but the factory director has developed an almost instinctive fear of the World Championship due to the experience of S4 and S5 drinking and hating twice in a row.

Just like now, many LPL mid-laners are afraid of her because they were killed.

This state of cringe-induced unconfidence cannot be easily changed with words.

Only by actually going to the World Championship and using brute force to help EDG get rid of the curse of the quarterfinals can you regain your teammates' confidence!

In this way, the LPL competition came to the sixth week, and EDG faced the WE team with whom they had a deep grudge.
